"Don't I wish I knew better by now? Well, I think I'm starting to."

I've always known who you were. I got it. You're self-centered, flirty, flakey, and a whole list of other negative adjectives. I knew. And, I stayed. It's what I do with people. So, that is also my fault.

But, tonight, when you told me that if I had feelings for you you would leave, I lost it. Taking no responsibility for your role in all of this?

How dare you?

Friends stick by each other. Period... Now, I know you don't have the best track record with that either, but you came back so I thought that meant you were sticking around. I mean, it's you, so I wasn't expecting this close-knit, rock-my-world friendship, but really?

I kept expecting things from you, expecting you to step up and be the person I know you can be. But, I guess, you proved them all right. You are clearly not a nice person. You clearly will never be anything more than you are now. You and him belong with each other. You will see the consequences of everything you're doing now in the future.

And, you know what? I'm fine. No downward spiral for me tonight. For some reason, it just makes sense now. For some reason, I have the strength to not need you.

Truly, more than anything, I hope it sticks.

Because, really, you aren't worth it.
